German Politicians Consider Sanctions Against Belarus
German politicians are discussing the possibility of sanctioning Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko's regime after fraudulent elections and the regime's intimidation of opposition members.

"Restricting entry visas is possible if it is done selectively and aims to affect the people surrounding Lukashenko," SPD foreign affairs spokesperson Gert Weisskirchen told the Berliner Zeitung.

"The European Union cannot accept these perverted, Soviet-style elections," Eckart von Klaeden of the CDU said.

<...>

Meanwhile, four aides to Belarus' main opposition presidential candidate, Alexander Milinkevich, were detained on Tuesday close to a square in central Minsk where protesters had spent the night.

1. If they care about fraudulent elections.
Why are they not sanctioning the US as well.

2. The US election wasn't THAT obvious

Bush didn't "win" by 85 percent as Lukashenko.
He was a bit smarter and "won" by just some 50+ percent.

3. "The US election wasn't THAT obvious" - maybe not to the USA citizens
.

But the World saw it

the "selection" was quite obvious to the rest of us

USA is under a dictatorship - Bush is just the puppet out front

Illuminati, the FreeMasons and the PNAcers run the USA

not the "people"

The "people" just get to pay the taxes that fund unending war

Think about it

Are any other nations waging war all over the globe?

hmmmmmm :freak:
